Anyway, work has been alright. Last week was slightly stressful i have to admit though. I still don't know if this is the line that i would want to work in after i graduate. Seeing how my colleagues stay behind till late and just how dedicated they are to work, it really keeps me thinking if i want this for myself. Those who know me very well would know that i am a very family-concentrated person. I can't live without my family, nor can i do without my friends. Think: Working long hours, coming home to have dinner and a good bath then straight to bed. I can't even strike a proper conversation with my mum/dad/bro these days. I'm too tired to ask anything else apart from "have you had your dinner?" or greet them goodnight. And then in the morning, i'd be ironing my clothes and watching my brother sleep while the rest of us rush to get prepared for work without speaking. So see? I know i'm still young and it's good to think about my career and if (God willing) the job will be my job for a long time. Some of my colleagues have been giving me some advice lately and it's nice to hear their opinions. They are afterall adults who have been working for so long. Travelling home with mum sometimes give me insights and help me think through what i really want too. Then again, i really hate it when i think about what i had really WANTED to do before. I really hate myself for bringing up the past and how i didn't stand up for myself (therefore i only have myself to blame).

If people are going to tell me that i still have time to think about it, maybe not. Have you noticed how time flies these days?! We're almost halfway through our SIP! And i still feel as if i've only been here for a couple of weeks!

Each week has it's own set of problems and wonders. I've had perfect endings thanks to my girls. I'm so glad we plan where to eat/hang out every friday after work just to destress and pour out whatever we feel. It's great. Perfect. So far, we've had dinner at Bishan and Cityhall. For the past 2 weeks, we went to Marina Square to have dinner, overlooking the CBD area (raffles place), MBS and esplanade. We also strolled aimlessly and reached the museums and the court. I've never ventured out like that before. But it's just a good way to just lose yourself rather than drink or club. Those 2, we can obviously do without. And i'm thankful to have friends who don't think those 2 things are life's pleasures. I really am. We walked to Cherie's place last friday night and she drove us home! It was such an experience - 6 girls in a Mercedes driving around town then heading home while people stare at us along the highway. LOL.

This week will be different though! I'll be finally meeting my B.I.G clique for dinner! I miss them so much. I never fail to remember the times we planned for events and hello! Successfully pull off event after event despite whatever constraints we had *coughcough! I miss the 6 of us so much. Us together = nothing can go wrong :P Sounds like an overstatement/boastful statement to say myself. But i am really proud of being in the committee and holding on to each other to carry out events. We're planning to head down to Ngee Ann City in November to give our juniors support! I can't wait to see them too. It'd be such a tearjerker if all of them are still as tight as how we left them to be (: I'd be so proud of them and us. It was a good thing we bonded them from the start and ironed out any issues from the beginning. It's because of them that i finally understand the feeling of achievement.

Talking about all these makes me miss school so much. I'm sure i will blog more about all the fun i had in Poly when i graduate. Gosh, i don't even want to THINK about graduation now. We're still months AWAY from graduation. Yes. MONTHS.

Time please slow down... I love TP so much because i made such good friends there, had opportunities to expand my horizons and harness my capabilities and had a vibrant transition from being a teenager to being a young adult now. I don't want to graduate so soon and leave it all behind.

, osn.
